The new year was ushered in with the right hand Maroussiwhich left Pylaia with a great double, winning by a score 85-79 of PAOK for the 13th matchday of the Stoiximan Basket League.
Speaking at the press conference after the match, Mr George Limniatis he dwelt on the details that decided the result, stressing among other things that his team deserved a big away win, after their very good performance against AEK last month.
The statements of Giorgos Limniatis in detail:
“We had discussed that we deserve a big win. We didn’t do it with AEK in Liosia and we achieved it today in Palataki. We showed character and faith in what we do.
We knew after the defeat by Tofas and the developments with the players, PAOK will come in and show a reaction. We wanted to match this, to be close and as the game went to the end to get the difference and get the result. We had 66% on 2-pointers and 20 assists. We showed our personality because we also lost Briscoe with 4 minutes to go. We achieved a very big victory.
We wanted to limit Fridriksson and make him more of a performer than a creator. In the second half we did a great job with Harrison as well. It’s a pure win for the players. Alas, if on the 2nd matchday in the second round we can discuss something higher. Humility is everything and we must show it from our very first training.”
